Xerox 5550 User Guide

A watermark is additional text that can be printed across one or more pages. For example, 
terms like Draft, Confidential, Date, Version that you might stamp on a page before 
distribution, can be inserted with a watermark.

Edit an existing watermark’s text, color, location, and angle

■

Place a watermark on either the first page or every page in a document

■

Print the watermark in the background

■

Print the text of the watermark as an outline (instead of filled text)
